Access Control

Access control solutions are becoming growingly popular in both commercial and residential sectors as a way to restrict entry to unauthorised personnel. At Fortress Security we understand that security systems differ according to the needs of the client and as a result we are able to work with various forms of access control for parking gates, barriers, elevators and doors. Our experts are able to tailor their service to the type of system you require.

Most commercial properties tend to have access control points to reduce the risk of keys being lost, duplicated, or not returned. A benefit of having such a solution installed means an employer having the ability to delete a former employee’s access rights if they do not return their access badge when leaving the company. On a networked system, this access can even be changed remotely as can role based access control. Types of access control system that Fortress Security can cater for include:

Card Readers

Digital locks

Biometric Fingerprint Readers

Mechanical push button

This can be anything from a simple mechanical digital door lock to a complete bespoke electronic system. We can install all types of systems custom built to your specifications or need. Please call the office to arrange for a confidential visit from one of our team.
